X Marks the Haunt

Will Stone has grown up in and around a graveyard since he  can remember, so nothing there scares him and he love doing the genealogy of some of the interned so families can find graves of others relative.  But when his  class takes a field trip to the graveyard and one of the boys dares Will to let him in after hours to do a pod cast from one of the grave sites.  They awaken a spirit and now must figure out how to help it so it will also stop killing all the trees his mom has worked on for years and just got the graveyard listed as a arboretum as well.

I really liked this book it is a mystery that is not easily solved in the beginning.  I liked the genealogy part of the story teaching the importance of where you come from and the research the goes into it.  I loved how the unthinkable in the beginning of being friends with some of these kids are to see new friendships blossom out of it, as well as them owning up to what they have done.  So lots to learn from Will and his friends but also a amazing mystery.
